I love my prayer plant! It does brown on the edges because of humidity but it still grows like wild fire. If humidity is a problem for you and you like perfect plants this isn’t a plant for you. If you don’t mind a happy plant with a few brown edges then this is your plant!

The easiest plant to propagate in water. In a couple weeks I had 2+ inch long roots. I have heard that the maranta plant can be kind of finicky so we’ll see how long I can keep it alive lol

I’ve propagated three different babies from this plant because the branches were getting too heavy for her to hold herself up, I didn’t think she’d come back from such a severe chopping but she’s back at it again with the new leaves.

This plant is very picky and temperamental but she’s perfection when you get the hang of her light and water combo!

This plant is constantly growing new beautiful leaves, grows fast, and survives. It needs more water than I thought and could have been repotted sooner than I did it. The new leaves have the rich reddish/purplish spots, and I was excited for these new flowers. I was also able to propagate several babies successfully to give to friends which is a bonus.

This plant is so cool! The leaves are very unique and I love tracking their moment as they unfold with the light every morning. Mine has put off 2 new leaves recently and is fairly low maintenance. Can get brown at the edges of the leaves with too much sun.

This plant has been around for 5 years and she’s gone through a lot. Yet, here she stands

Grows very quickly with beautiful green leaves. I haven't had any problems with this plant so far.

I would say my maranta is the first intermediate/advanced plant I’ve been able to keep happy.
I got it in a 4” pot a year ago and it has been pushing out leaves and flowers non-stop since. Is now in a 6” pot.
For mine, water in a tray underneath is key. Or her leaves brown at the tips easily. Now that she is much bigger and her leaves hang far beyond the tray I have for her, I’m a bit nervous they’ll get crispy so keeping an eye out for that.
Very easy to propagate, too. I have taken a few cuttings, rooted them in water and added them to the pot to make her bushier.
A really fascinating and unique plant once you attune to her needs.

After the winter I have to propagate my babies! They will tell you very quickly when they need more water and humidity. However, they are my favorite to watch grow and bloom.

Beautiful, but a little floppy for my taste. I propagated a few cuttings to try to fill her out, but she just...flops.

Much prettier version compared to its classic red-striped prayer plant relative (in my opinion) and from what I hear they are much less fussy. There is CONSTANT new growth. Only downside was through winter the new growth was small and then got bigger again.
